Double Degree between Norwegian School of Economics (NHH) and The University of Mannheim

With this application I seek support for my stay in Germany from the period 09.2013 to 09.2014. As a participant in the Double Degree collaboration between Norwegian School of Economics (NHH) and The University of Mannheim, I will spend one year studying in Mannheim during the academic year 2013-2014. During my stay here in Mannheim I will complete 60ECTS. My goal with this year is to learn as much as possible about the German culture, its business life and doing business in Germany. I also seek to lea rn the German language and to challenge myself academically at one of Europe?s best business schools. The funding from the Ruhrgass Scholarship will allow me to focus on maximizing my cultural and academic experience. It would allow me to learn more ab out the German business life, and give me the opportunity to pursue an international career aimed towards the German-Norwegian business life. As part of my stay in Mannheim I will write my master thesis, and the funding from Ruhrgass would allow me to res earch more on the German-Norwegian business life in my thesis.
